OK now for the one thing that keeps me in NH to this point ... my son!
I want to be near my family but my son (now 26) was born and raised in NH and does not want to move. Even though he says he would prefer me to stay, he would be ok if I moved.
In Florida you have hurricanes but in NH you have snow storms many times a winter and severe driving conditions. So I figured that evens itself out. At least the hurricanes can be hit or miss depending where it makes land fall.
I have lived in the same place for 32 years. Most of my family lives in Florida (most of my family lives there) so I have been toying with the idea of moving.
I am aware it will be a drastic change in climate but other than that, help me list pros and cons to this move please.
By unfair judgement I mean it is unfair of me to assume a person is a recovering alcoholic simply because they state they never drink.
My judgement of that person comes from personal experience - being married to a recovering alcoholic for 10 yrs. It was a difficult relationship and I therefore tend to shy away from said people.
When I was nine, I was in an auto accident which left me with a broken leg. I spent a good deal of time in the hospital in traction. I had such a huge crush on my doctor that when it was time to leave the hospital, I didn't want to go.
Who of us place unfair judgements against people here, either from something you read in their profile or from something they have posted in the forums?
I personally have to confess when I read in a guy's profile that he NEVER drinks, I assume he is a recovering alcoholic. My theory is why else would anyone NEVER drink alcohol.
We have a good relationship. I don't think I would sit him down and have a lengthy discussion.
Just something short and to the point. He has always been respectful to me. I don't think he would take it badly. But it might make him think the next time.
I work with guy who is about 32 (divorced) and he brings his 3 year old son (William) to work with him (to later be picked up by the grandparents). On a regular basis, he bad mouths his ex in front of William.
I want so badly to say something about the repercussions this will have on both their lives in a few years if he persists but have at this point kept quiet.
Would you say something or mind your own business?
In my wilder days, went to a guys hotel room with alot of other people. Had too much to drink and got bored so I went down to the pool which had closed hours before. I jumped the fence and went skinny dipping. Got caught by some guy from the party who also got bored. It was only embarrassing for a moment - then he decided to join me.

He is the only reason I am still in NH.
